Tuntari Movie Review
Nara Rohith's latest offering Tuntari is an official remake of Tamil film Maan Karate produced by A.R. Murugadoss. The star director also provided story for the film besides producing it. Tuntari is a sports fantasy that has its fun moments but let down by lackluster direction and lazy performances.
What is it about?
Five software engineers meet a sadhu in the forest who gives them a newspaper from the future. They come to know that they are behind the success of a champion boxer called Raju (Nara Rohith). They are shocked to see Raju as he is an aimless guy who doesn't even know that boxing is a sport. Now they should train him up and get him ready for the championship. Raju has to face a fierce and ruthless boxer killer raju (Kabir) to become the champion. Can he win the match against all the odds?
Performances:
Nara Rohith has tried his hand at comedy. He is fine with his histrionics but doesn't look convincing in many scenes. Latha Hegde is just okay as the female lead. Vennela Kishore gets a meaty role. Shankar tried his best to make us laugh. Kabir suits the part. There is nothing much to write about the remaining star cast.
Technicalities:
The premise is interesting but Kumar couldn't get the positives of the original right leave alone correcting the negatives in it. Maan Karate was technically sound but Tuntari falls short by miles. Music by Sai Karthik is mediocre. There is nothing great about the cinematography. The story screams for better production values.
Thumbs Up:
Concept
Climax
Thumbs Down:
Screenplay
Music
Heroine
Analysis:
Like most of Nara Rohith's films, Tuntari too has an interesting plot, but fails to impress due to weak execution. Rohith tried something different from his usual tough guy kind of roles. This is surely a different film for him. He should have put in sincere efforts to make it a special one.
Maan Karate wasn't a perfect film but it worked because of certain positives, which are absolutely missing in Tuntari. The chemistry between the lead pair is bad. Songs come as speed breakers and seem totally unnecessary at times. Bad music didn't help to lift the spirits of the film. On a whole Tuntari is a average entertainer that could have been much better with proper handling.
Verdict: Lacks the punch.
